Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 6 Michal Privoznik 2023-02-10 15:06:45 UTC
I believe this is not a QEMU bug, rather than Libvirt's. In fact it's a duplicate of bug 2154750. And even though it is still in ASSIGNED it's only because I need to come up with a better solution to fix the bug. However, the fix for this particular problem is merged in libvirt-9.0.0 (see bug 2154750#c9). Would you mind trying with libvirt-9.0.0?

Comment 7 James Parker 2023-02-10 18:18:18 UTC
Thanks Michal, I will update the environment and try and get some 9.0.0 results early next week.

Comment 8 John Ferlan 2023-02-14 16:52:34 UTC
Michal - so it doesn't get lost/forgotten - I'll assign to you. We can change this if it's determined that it's not a duplicate of bug 2154750.

Indeed it is. I'll wait for James to retry with libvirt-9.0.0 and close this afterwards.

Comment 14 James Parker 2023-02-20 18:13:45 UTC
I can confirm the issue is no longer reproducible in my environment with libvirt-9.0.0-5.el9.

Comment 15 zhoujunqin 2023-02-21 03:14:14 UTC
Hi Michal and James,
I cannot reproduce this issue with the latest libvirt-9.0.0-6.el9.x86_64 when I create a new VM with NUMA configuration, but I failed to create a new VM with NUMA+Hugepages configuration, hope the following message can help you.

Package version:[OSP compute node]
libvirt-daemon-9.0.0-6.el9.x86_64
qemu-kvm-7.2.0-9.el9.x86_64
openstack-nova-compute-23.2.3-1.20230208100952.797c5fa.el9ost.noarch

OSP puddle tag:17.1_20230216.1

Test result:
1. Succeed to create a new VM on the OSP server only with NUMA configured.

(overcloud) [stack@dell-per740-66 ~]$ openstack server create --flavor  m1.mixed --image r9-q --nic net-id=85bb7932-efb4-417b-beda-7ee4b4eab002 vm_numa

Hi Michal,
And do you think scenario-2 is the same issue with https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2166979, please help investigate it, thanks.

It's more like: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2167102 but in the end, both issues are the same (OSP starts virtqemud with too restrictive umask). They just differ in the way the restriction demonstrates itself.
